Johansen's stepped yield criterion 299

As m calculated from As only

Fig. 8.3-6 Slab with top and bottom reinforcement

of reinforcement. Similarly, where a slab is reinforced with both top and

bottom reinforcement, as in Fig. 8.3-6, the positive yield moment m is

calculated from the bottom steel As by ignoring the existence of the top

steel A;; the negative yield moment m' is calculated from the top steel A~

by ignoring the existence of the bottom steel As. (See Example 8.4-4.)

Example 8.3-1

A skew slab is rigidly supported along two opposite edges and unsupported

along the other two edges (Fig. 8.3-7(a) ). The top and bottom reinforcement

each consists of two unequal bands of bars respectively parallel to the

supported and unsupported edges. Determine the normal moments on

all the yield lines for the assumed patterns in Fig. 8.3-7(b) and (c).

SOLUTION

For yield-line pattern in Fig. 8.3-7 (b)

(mn)ab = (mn)te = m2 cos2 a (from Fig. 8.3-8(a) and eqn 8.3-7)

For yield-line pattern in Fig. 8.3-7 (c)

(mn)ef = mz cos 2 a (as for (mn)ab above)

(mn)eh = m 1 cos 2 a (from Fig. 8.3-8(b) and eqn 8.3-7)

(mn)ej = m1 cos2 (~- {3) + m2 cos2 ({3 - a)
